Ideale bas distortion zonder storende feedback. Ik had eerst de boss ODB, die ook heel goed is, maar de BOD heeft een duidelijke distortion. De Boss is wel van betere kwaliteit omdat het een metale pedal is en de BOD slechts PVC is. Dus moet je er wel voorzichtiger mee zijn. Deze is ideaal voor grindcore. Ik gebruik het in combinatie met een Ibanez bas en Ashdown combo versterker.
I wanted an overdrive pedal for occasional home use, I couldn’t justify spending a great amount so I purchased this. I am happy with it, the overdrive sounds are reasonable for what I want, there are a variety of tones available from the controls and it seems solid enough as far as plastic can be. The separate bass and treble and blend controls work well enough and although the gain is a bit fizzy rather than warm, it is ok for my needs. As I said, I’m only using this at home at low volume so cannot comment on its suitability for studio or stage For the price, I don’t think you can go wrong.
